Toledo Castile-La Mancha Kingdom of Spain

Ciudad fundada por los Romanos.

Judios,Musulmanes y Cristianos dieron el nombre a la “Ciudad de las Tres Culturas”

Con la bufanda del río

Toledo se abriga del frío.

Con la campana mayor,

se quedó sordo un señor.

Con la tajada del tajo

un perro se vino abajo

y los árabes con destreza

convirtieron el agua en belleza.

Fijaos bien en lo que os digo:

quinientos curas y ochocientos mendigos

forman este pueblo que corte ha sido.

—Comprensión y pesetas a Usía pido,

que yo soy de los guías en mejor “guío”.

Comprensión y pesetas le pido a Usía,

yo soy de los turistas el mejor guía.

—¡Vean la Sinagoga y el Alcázar Real,

disfruten con el entierro del Conde Orgaz!

(En Zocodover hay un autocar,

y en el Tajo una viuda se ha echado a navegar.)

La ciudad está vieja

y no va más,

aún llegan al encanto de su agonizar,

vamos turistas, vamos allá,

¡antes de que caigan la noche y la Catedral!

Poema de Gloria Fuertes

Mientras tanto, una dama envia a su celestina para sus fines y las malas artes. Aunque esta vez se podria decir... a río revuelto, ganancia de pescadores.

Toledo ist eine alte Stadt auf einem Hügel über dem Flachland von Castilla-La Mancha in der Mitte Spaniens. Die Hauptstadt der Region ist für ihre arabischen, jüdischen und christlichen Bauwerke aus dem Mittelalter in der von einer Mauer umgebenen Altstadt bekannt.

leider fehlte an diesem Vormittag die Sonne, obwohl es recht warm war

Toledo is a city in central Spain, inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1986.

Toledo is known as the "Imperial City" because it was the headquarters of the court of Charles V, and as the "City of Three Cultures" because of the cultural influence of Christians, Muslims and Jews in its history. It is known for its long history in the production of edged weapons.

The city sits on top of a mountain, bordered on three sides by the Tagus River, containing many monuments, including the Alcazar and the Gothic Primate Cathedral of Spain.

Successively a Roman municipium, the capital of the Visigothic Kingdom, a fortress of the Emirate of Cordoba, an outpost of the Christian kingdoms fighting the Moors and, in the 16th century, the temporary seat of supreme power under Charles V, Toledo is the repository of more than 2,000 years of history. Its masterpieces are the product of heterogeneous civilizations in an environment where the existence of three major religions – Judaism, Christianity and Islam – was a major factor.

Thanks for your visits, comments and faves!!

Have a fantastic week!!

Panorama of the skyline in Toledo, OH with the Maumee River in the foreground. This is my first successful panorama and I think it turned out pretty well, overall. I really dig the tall building left of center that allows the warm light from the setting sun to peek through.

This scene is soon to change when ProMedica builds their headquarters in place of the old Steam Plant and erects a parking garage right next to it.

This image is a bit more cluttered with people and objects than I would have liked but then again its a busy railway station . The train station in Toledo in Spain did I feel warrant a photograph it looks l more like a Moorish palace than somewhere to board a train.

The Toledo railway station was designed by architect Narciso Clavería y de Palacios in the Neo-Mudéjar style The station was opened in 1919 . It was designed to echo the historic architecture of the city. The central section is flanked by two side naves, one of which is adjacent to the clock tower, which imitates the style of Toledo church towers.

The station has been declared a Property of Cultural Interest and classified as a monument.

THANKS FOR YOUR VISIT TO MY STREAM.

I WOULD BE VERY GRATEFUL IF YOU COULD NOT FAVE A PHOTO WITHOUT ALSO LEAVING A COMMENT .
